Eagle Academy HS 97

The basketball game took place at Eagle Academy for Young Men II gym. Brooklyn Collegiate HS was in the lead for the whole game. Eagle Academy HS fought back for 4 quarters. In the 4th, Eagle Academy started coming back.

Brooklyn Collegiate H.S. Coach Malcolm Conner: “I feel the game went really well. We jumped on them early, we fought through adversity. We were missing some of our key guys, and that is not an excuse, but we still pulled the win.

The defensive pressure was there for the first three quarters. Once we got our lead, the team got comfortable and Eagle Academy started coming back in the 4th quarter.”
